Also, of course, the data isn't always correct.As Steve Lister said, there's Birdtrack, which should be accurate (I haven't tried that one), and eBird, in which I have spotted quite a lot of errors in areas or with species which I know.I have published the latest number of "Peregrine" now and have been distributing copies to various libraries in the Isle of Man and UK. I am sure that some time in one of these big libraries which take a lot of bird reports will fill in many of the gaps in your knowledge of Willow Tit distribution. I would suggest that you contact the library first to check which and how many reports they have and whether you can just "turn up" or do you have to book.Allen</blockquote>
